About Me


IN PRODUCTION MARCH/APRIL 2008
In Huskvarna/Jönköping - Sweden

Arkusan Martinsson is 23 years old and hates his life. He is unwillingly unemployed, lives with his mom and spends his day with his "best" friend Ronkas, a hyperactive non-stop-talking guy - the complete opposite to the calm and silent Arkusan. Together they try to make the day go by while hanging out in the local cafeteria and the record store.
We follow them in a typical day of their lives as they talk about dreams and their view of living in Sweden.
This is more a portray of today's society more than an actual story. If you've ever been in the situation where you've been out of work and not being offered one interview despite all your ass kissing and countless of applications - then this movie is for you!
